Wilkopops Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 What happened to transfer budgets? Got this game for Christmas, started as Derby in the first game. Only got £3million to spend. Fair enough I thought, nothing much wrong with that. It's lower than the FM08 budget but hey-ho, we've signed a few players already. Then just to test something out, I started a new game as both Man Utd, and then Man City. At Man Utd I got a transfer budget of £10m and at Man City £5m. What's up with that? My manager experience is "International Footballer". I've only reached December in my Derby game, so is more money given to you in January? What about for Man Utd and Man City? I doubt you'd seriously get that little in reality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimbobWWFC Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Imagine how much money these teams spent during summer 2009 before the game starts. "In reality", you should be starting with transfer budgets disabled, then every team will have a better chance of starting the season with the same squad that they did in real life.

4457 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 If you aren't given a lot, ask the board for a bit more. Most big clubs will be happy to top up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney's toenail Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Hi everyone I am currently playing as Man City and every couple months the chairman provides a cash injection but the transfer budget remains unaffected any ideas why?

Wee Aja Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Try asking for more funds in the "Boardroom" (like I said on the other thread), and again; have you tried that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClownCollege Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I also got £0 when i started as Pompey, but it didnt bother me a lot of the fringe and backup players were easy to sell, e.g. Lauren, Pamarot, Traore, and you can get a few million for each of these.
